Privacy Policy

Welcome to the Panchang Apps published by AppZila ("we," "us," or "our"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you download, install, or use any of the language-specific Panchang mobile applications listed in Section 2 (each an "Application," and together the "Applications") on Android or iOS devices, and when you visit our website at www.appzila.com (the "Site").

Each Application provides a regional-language Vedic / Hindu calendar experience — including daily panchang (Tithi, Vara, Nakshatra, Yoga, Karana), festival dates, muhurat guidance, and related cultural content — tailored to the language of that app. The Applications share the same developer, architecture, and data practices; this single Privacy Policy covers all of them.

Please read this Privacy Policy carefully. By accessing or using any Application, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please discontinue use of the Application immediately.

This Privacy Policy applies to users globally, including users in India, the European Economic Area ("EEA"), the United Kingdom ("UK"), California (USA), and other jurisdictions. Where applicable law grants additional rights, those rights are described below.

This Privacy Policy applies equally to each of the following Applications published by AppZila:

References to "the Application" mean whichever of the above apps you are using. Unless a feature is unique to one language edition, the same data practices apply across the full set.

We collect only information that is necessary to provide, improve, secure, and support the Applications.

We use the information we collect for the following purposes:

• To provide and maintain the Application: Display daily panchang, festivals, muhurat, and language-specific calendar content.
• To personalise timings (optional): Use a city or location you select (or approximate location if you grant permission) to show more accurate local sunrise, sunset, and related timings.
• To improve the Application: Analyse aggregated usage to understand which features are most useful and prioritise updates.
• To detect and fix bugs: Use crash and diagnostic reports to improve stability.
• To serve advertisements: Display ads via Google AdMob to support free availability of the Applications.
• To send optional notifications: If you enable them, deliver daily panchang reminders, festival alerts, or service notices.
• To comply with legal obligations: Respond to lawful requests and meet applicable legal requirements.
• To communicate with you: Respond to support inquiries you initiate.

Where GDPR applies, we process information under performance of a contract (providing the service), legitimate interests (product improvement and security), consent (personalized advertising and optional notifications), and legal obligation.

• Calendar content: Tithi, Nakshatra, Yoga, Karana, festivals, and muhurat information are presented for cultural and informational use.
• Saved preferences: City selection, reminder toggles, and similar settings are typically stored locally on your device. We do not use these preferences to build a saleable personal profile.
• Share / export: If you share a panchang card or festival detail via your device share sheet, that action is handled by your operating system and destination app; we do not receive a copy of what you share unless you also send it to us for support.
• No professional advice: The Applications are informational tools. They do not provide medical, legal, financial, or professional counselling advice.

Each Application requests only the minimum permissions needed for its features.

The Applications use Google AdMob, a mobile advertising service provided by Google LLC, to display advertisements that help support free availability of the apps.

The Applications may integrate the following third-party services, each subject to its own privacy policy:

We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information. We may share information only in these limited circumstances:

• Service Providers: Google and other vendors who provide advertising, analytics, crash reporting, or infrastructure under contractual restrictions.
• Legal Requirements: When required by law, legal process, or to protect rights, safety, and security.
• Business Transfers: In connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, subject to appropriate protections.
• With Your Direction: When you share content via third-party apps (WhatsApp, etc.), those platforms process shared content under their own policies.

• On-device preferences: Remain on your device until you clear app data or uninstall the Application.
• Analytics data: Retained according to Firebase retention settings we configure, generally in aggregated or pseudonymous form.
• Crash logs: Typically retained for about 90 days by default in Crashlytics.
• Advertising data: Governed by Google AdMob's retention policies.
• Support communications: Up to 24 months unless a longer period is needed to resolve an issue.

When retention is no longer necessary, we delete or anonymise data, or isolate it from active use until deletion from backups is complete.

We implement commercially reasonable technical and organisational measures, including encryption in transit (TLS), data minimisation, and restricted access to analytics dashboards. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure; we cannot guarantee absolute security.

The Applications are not directed to children under 13 (or under 16 in the EEA/UK, or such higher age as required by local law). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us personal information, contact us at info@appzila.com, and we will take steps to delete it promptly.

If you are in the EEA or UK, you have rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, objection, withdrawal of consent, and the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.

To exercise these rights, email info@appzila.com with the subject line "GDPR Data Request — Panchang Apps." We will respond within 30 days where required, after verifying your identity. Because core features do not require an account, personal data attributable to you may be limited primarily to analytics, crash, advertising, and support communications.

California residents may have rights to know, delete, and correct personal information, and to opt out of sale or sharing for cross-context behavioural advertising. We do not sell personal information. To submit a request, email info@appzila.com with the subject line "CCPA Privacy Request — Panchang Apps." We will respond within 45 days of a verifiable request.

Categories typically collected include identifiers (advertising / device IDs), internet or network activity (app usage, crash data), and approximate location if permission is granted.

The Applications are operated from India and available globally. Information may be transferred to and processed in India, the United States (where providers such as Google LLC operate), and other countries. By using an Application, you understand such transfers occur in accordance with this Policy and applicable safeguards (including Standard Contractual Clauses where required).

Users in other jurisdictions (including India under the DPDP Act, Brazil under LGPD, Canada under PIPEDA, and Australia under the Privacy Act) may have additional rights. Contact us to exercise applicable local rights.

We may update this Privacy Policy at any time. For material changes, we will update the Effective Date, display a notice in the Application or on www.appzila.com, and/or notify you where required by law. Continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the revised terms, except where additional consent is required.
